Excerpt from the Union of Nazarene Yisrael Congregation

The UONYC believes that Yahweh is rescuing from the nations and false religions, a redeemed blood washed remnant by Yahshua’s blood, and rebuilding Yisrael. Renewed Covenant Yisrael, is defined as Judah-Yahudah and Ephraim-Yisrael, the two physical houses becoming one again, through our Moshiach Yahshua. Their companions are the minority non-Yisraelites, who by Moshiach’s atonement, join the nation of Yisrael, and become Yisrael but not Jews. We recognize that all Jews are Yisraelites but also that all Yisraelites are not Jews (10 tribes). The Yisrael of Yahweh, Galatians 6:16, includes all children of the promise, through Isaac-Yitzchak and Jacob-Yisrael, and those who join Yisrael. First Peter 2:9, Ezekiel 37:16, Isaiah 56:1-8.

Excerpt from Simchat Yisrael

Is there a difference between Jews for Jesus and Messianic Judaism?

The answer to this question is yes. Jews For Jesus has a singular mission of sharing the good news about Messiah Yeshua with Jewish people. Many people involved with Jews For Jesus see, as their primary focus of identity, the Christian Church. Thus they see themselves as Christians of Jewish decent. Their expression of worship and theology are rooted in the historical Church.

Messianic Judaism sees itself fundamentally as a Judaism. Thus the Jewish people in the Messianic Jewish movement define themselves as Jewish people who believe that Yeshua (Jesus) is the promised Messiah. They worship in synagogues on Shabbat, celebrate the Jewish Holidays and participate in a Jewish life cycle.
